Steve’s cross frame
One day I will get a good photo of this, but here it is!
This single speed cross frame features ornamental head tube and seat tube reinforcement rings, double plain style fork crown, and fillet brazed joints. It also has hidden fender mounts on the seat stay and chain stay bridges for a clean full fender set up. The slightly sloping top tube allows for easy stand over and a comfortable handlebar height while maintaining a classic style. The photo doesn’t do the color justice. Its an avocado green with a gold outline on the logo and avocado skin green for the fill. This thing lights up in the sun!
The geometry of this bike makes for a smooth ride, yet does not feel sluggish. I contribute this to the custom fork. I am able to rake the blades and build the fork height to what ever I desire. This allows me to perfectly match the head tube angle of the frame to the fork rake in order to obtain the correct “feel” for the customer.
Its all in the details!
